- Adjust test limits, delays, and guard ratios to eliminate false failures, marginal passes, or intermittent open/short flags caused by component tolerances.

Program Debugging & Development Support:

- Use BT-Basic debug environments to step through failing test nodes, analyze analog measurement waveforms, and isolate software bugs from actual hardware faults.

- Adjust digital vector timings, drive levels, and receive thresholds for digital IC testing.

Quality Compliance:

- Ensure all software edits pass engineering validation ("Golden Board" run) before releasing the updated test files back to the active production line.
